POTSDAM -- The Potsdam Rotary Club recently held the third annual Wheelchair Challenge to raise fund for the Wheelchair Foundation.

The challenge featured teams of four in an elimination competition relay race at Maxcy Hall field house, SUNY Potsdam. The event raised awareness and provided funds for the purchase of more than twenty wheelchairs.

Each team that participated was required to raise a minimum of $75. The Wheelchair Foundation matched each entry and donated a chair.
